March RRtY Rides

Two more rides this month for the RRtY award. That’s six months done of this round of the series. The first was a modified version of an Audax UK calendar event I completed back in May 2013, the Hop Garden 200. Hop Garden 200k May 2013 Calendar Event Pruned Hop Garden 200k March 2026 DIY Not sure why but the original ride is logged in my RWGPS account as having been completed in April 2012. That does not match my ride history on the Audax UK website or my memory of it.

Little pear pies are the fuel for todays 200k #RRtY DIY #audax ride. Stopped off in Wye for one with a coffee in Wye, because, you know why not.

Waffling on about the 200k ride I did yesterday. There's more detail than I foresaw about Audax UK regulations, DiY rides and the RRtY awards. It's mostly in the footnotes. What have I become.

audax: Neighbourhood 200 DiY

I started my first RRtY1 series in October 2023, the second in October 2024 and the third and fourth in October 2025. I’m now doing two years simultaneously because… well it seems manageable and I don’t want to take ten years to get the Ultra (x10) RRtY Award. If I keep going with two a year I’ll get that in 2029. Why you may ask does it matter. Getting the award does not matter at all. It’s what goes into getting it and what I get out of that which is what really matters. I suppose that’s not so different from any endeavour.

Date and almond rice cakes to fuel todays 200k DiY. Five months into the third and fourth RRtY (simultaneous). #audax #RRtY. About 25k to go and I'll be back home. It's been grey and drizzly weather.
